Assembly
Warning! Before assembly, make sure that the tool is
switched off and unplugged.
Fitting and removing the guard (昀椀g. A1, A2)
The tool is supplied with a guard intended for grinding
purposes only (type 27). If the unit is intended to perform
cutting off operations, a guard speci昀椀c for this operation (type
41) must be 昀椀tted. A suitable guard part numbers N642463
(for 115mm cutting wheel) can be obtained from
BLACK+DECKER service centres.
Place the tool on a table, with the spindle (5) facing up.
u
Align the lugs (7) with the notches (8).
u
Press the guard down and rotate it clockwise to
u
the required position.
Tighten the screw (6) to fix guard.
u
Removing
Loosen the screw (6).
u
Rotate the guard counter clockwise to align the lugs (7)
u
with the notches (8).
Remove the guard from the tool.
u
Warning! Never use the tool without the guard.
Fitting the side handle
Screw the side handle (4) into one of the mounting holes
u
in the tool.
Warning! Always use the side handle.
Fitting and removing grinding discs
(昀椀g. B - D)
Always use the correct type of disc for your application.
Always use discs with the correct diameter and bore size (see
technical data).
Fitting
Fit the guard as described above.
u
Place the inner 昀氀ange (10) onto the spindle (5) as shown
u
(昀椀g. B).
Make sure that the 昀氀ange is correctly located on
the 昀氀at sides of the spindle.
Place the disc (11) onto the spindle (5) as shown (昀椀g. B).
u
If the disc has a raised centre (12), make sure that the
raised centre faces the inner 昀氀ange.
Make sure that the disc locates correctly on the inner
u
昀氀ange.
(Original instructions)
Place the outer 昀氀ange (13) onto the spindle. When 昀椀tting
u
a grinding disc, the raised centre on the outer 昀氀ange must
face towards the disc (A in 昀椀g. C). When 昀椀tting a cutting
disc, the raised centre on the outer 昀氀ange must face away
from the disc (B in 昀椀g. C).
Keep the spindle lock (2) depressed and tighten the outer
u
昀氀ange using the two-pin spanner (14) (昀椀g. D).
Removing
Keep the spindle lock (2) depressed and loosen the outer
u
昀氀ange (13) using the two-pin spanner (14) (昀椀g. D).
Remove the outer 昀氀ange (13) and the disc (11).
u
Surface grinding with grinding discs
Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
u
to the work surface.
Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the
u
tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest
when the tool operates at high speed.
Maintain a 20˚ to 30˚ angle between the tool and work
u
surface as shown in 昀椀gure F.
Continuously move the tool in a forward and back motion
u
to avoid creating gouges in the work surface.
Remove the tool from work surface before turning tool off.
u
Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it down.
Edge grinding with grinding discs
Wheels used for cutting and edge grinding may break or kick
back if they bend or twist while the tool is being used to do
cutoff work or deep grinding. Edge grinding/ cutting with a
Type 27 wheel must be limited to shallow cutting and notching,
less than 13 mm in depth when the wheel is new. Reduce the
depth of cutting/notching equal to the reduction of the wheel
radius as it wears down. Refer to the 'Grinding and cutting
accessory chart' at the end of ths manual for more
information. Edge grinding/cutting with a Type 41 wheel
requires usage of a Type 41 guard.
Allow the tool to reach full speed before touching the tool
u
to the work surface.
Apply minimum pressure to the work surface, allowing the
u
tool to operate at high speed. Grinding rate is greatest
when the tool operates at high speed.
Position yourself so that the openunderside of the wheel is
u
facing away from you.
Once a cut is begun and a notch is established in the
u
workpiece, do not change the angle of the cut.
Changing the angle will cause the wheel to bend and may
cause wheel breakage.
Edge grinding wheels are not designed to withstand side
pressures caused by bending.
Remove the tool from the work surface before turning the
u
tool off. Allow the tool to stop rotating before laying it
down.
